What is a Private Guarantor?
A private guarantor is an individual who agrees to be financially responsible for a borrowers obligations if the borrower defaults.

- Firsttime renters or tenants with little rental history.
- Students or recent graduates applying for a loan.
- Selfemployed individuals whose income is irregular.

Can a guarantor be a nonresident?
Yes, nonresident guarantors can be accepted provided they have a verifiable source of income and a stable financial profile in their home country.
What happens if the guarantors credit score changes?
Significant drops in credit rating after the guarantee is signed do not affect the existing agreement, but future guarantees may be reevaluated.
Is there a limit to the number of guarantees a person can provide?
Legally, there is no set limit, but lenders may impose internal caps based on risk management policies.
